Took my eldest down the beach with some frozen worm saturday to kill a few hours. Bagged about 10 wrasse on every cast, couldn't even put the rod down to make a smoke without the rod arching over. Then the time came for imogen to learn to cast (her choice not mine) I baited up and showed her the ropes......The first attempt nearly bagged her first black Labrador but when the coast was clear she flung out a good cast (surprisingly) and after a few seconds the rod jolted and she reeled in her first wrasse at 100mph. ;D Then another and another, i gave up and left her too it. After a few `vertical` casts she started chucking out a few good length casts and bagged a fish every time. She was well chuffed and wants to join the site and help me out on the bass comp...is there an age limit hehe? ;D Believe it or not its a wrasse not a bit of weed on the hook!!!

Great pictures Dave and what tremendous fun! Just a little word of advice though - my buddy was fishing with bare legs last year and hooked himself, he now wears trousers everytime we go.
